I'm pregnant right now, but I wanted to find out ways I could lose weight AFTER I give birth. I'd love to lose at least 15 pounds after this and I'd like to tone my arms and abs and glutes. Any tips on how to do all that? I'd like to get rid of the double chin as well! please help!!!!!!!!!

find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)

The most important component of fitness is nutrition. In order to shed fat and build muscle, you have to eat well. Next, begin some sort of cardio and weight training program. You cannot spot reduce, meaning you cannot remove fat from just one place. It will decrease throughout the body, so focus on working hard during cardio and eating well.
